After years of steady development of its full-frame mirrorless system, Sony has set its sights on updates to its more compact and affordable APS-C line. It started things off with the a6400 and followed up with a model below it, the a6100 and one above it, the a6600, which is the subject of this review. The three models share the same image sensor and basic feature set, but the a6600 sets itself apart with in-body stabilization, a high-capacity battery, and an overall sturdier build. It’s a strong camera, with class-leading autofocus performance, but falls a bit shy of being an Editors’ Choice.

Sony’s Flagship APS-C

Sony describes the a6600 as its flagship APS-C model. It has a fittingly high-quality build, packing internals in a magnesium alloy body with seals to protect from dust and splashes. The form factor hasn’t changed much versus the earlier a6500, though the new model enjoys a better, deeper handgrip.

Sony a6600 : Sample Image

The a6600 measures 2.6 by 4.7 by 2.7 inches (HWD) and weighs 17.7 ounces without a lens attached. It’s sold only in black. The body has a built-in EVF and a hot shoe, but drops the in-camera flash found in the a6500 and lesser-priced models in the series. Will you miss it? I’ve found it useful in other models, especially to tilt back for a bit of indirect light, but I’ve talked to other photographers who find it completely unnecessary.
